Latest on Arsenal interest in Viktor Gyokeres

Arsenal have been told they must pay up to land Viktor Gyokeres this summer.

The Gunners are desperate to sign a new forward, be it one who can be the focal point of the attack or play wide, with alternatives now being sought after top target Benjamin Sesko opted to remain at RB Leipzig.

According to The Sun, prolific Sporting Lisbon forward Gyokeres is on the Emirates Stadium radar having been scouted plenty over the last few months.

However, the former Coventry star has an £85m release clause in his current contract in Portugal and Sporting do not want to sell him for much less.

It is said that Arsenal would prefer a deal around the £50-60m mark.

Arsenal launch shock move for Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin

Arsenal are reportedly trying to sign Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin in a shock deal this summer.

The Gunners are expected to be on the lookout for a new stopper before next season to provide cover and competition for No1 David Raya, who is set to complete a permanent £27m transfer from London rivals Brentford after a successful season-long loan spell.

That is because England’s Aaron Ramsdale is widely expected to move on as he seeks to revitalise his stalled career having lost the starting job to Raya at the start of this season.

Arsenal are confident of agreeing a contract extension with third-choice option Karl Hein, but want him to go out on loan to an EFL club next season.

According to reports from Spain, a proposal has already been sent to Lunin, the Ukraine international who ended up being an important figure for Real Madrid in their Champions League and LaLiga-title winning season after injuries to both Thibaut Courtois and Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Liverpool and Man Utd battle Real Madrid for Leny Yoro

The race is on to sign Leny Yoro.

The 18-year-old Lille defender will not sign a new contract ahead of his existing deal expiring in 2025, sparking an auction for his talents this summer.

Lille are happy to cash in but The Athletic say Real Madrid are strongly expected to land him, either this summer or as a free agent next year.

A move now would cost around £42m.

Manchester United and Liverpool are both pushing hard to change that narrative, along with Paris Saint-Germain.

All three are said to have approached Yoro’s camp with a deal that would match or exceed Madrid’s offer.
